Arbetsgruppen träffar sin nya chef, Ingrid, och tar sig an mordutredningen för f.d. chefen för arbetsgruppen.
Mordkommissionen följer en grupp poliser på danska Rigspolitichefens Rejseafdeling vars uppdrag består i att assistera den lokala polisen runt om i Danmark vid särskilt svåra fall. Många av fallen bygger på verkliga kriminalfall [2]. Alla de "inspirerande" fallen är dock inte danska. Ett av avsnitten bygger uppenbart på Åmselemorden 1988, och ett annat är en variation på Patricia Highsmiths "Främlingar på tåg", filmad av Alfred Hitchcock. Parallellt med fallen rullas deras vardagsliv upp.
